i mean the price is decent they have a wide range of mechanical parts
camshafts, intake manifolds, headers i mean they look decent. Maybe nobody gives them the benefit of the doubt just for having the name. Please leave facts base on if u used there parts or a close friend used them on there acura b-series

 

A lot of people have had problems with OBX parts. Either fit issues, or just the quality. Lots of people have had problems with the LSD blowing up. A few people have had good luck with the cams. Do a lot of searching and see what you come up with.

 

The only real problems I've heard of, is with their differential. I heard that once you get the axles in, they won't come out. I don't really know too much about them, and I've heard enough horror stories about them to make me not want to trust anything they make.

 

ive heard there oil pans dont line up well. i have an obx LSD in my car right now i love it so far. i have yet to pull the axles out i am upgrading them soon so ill be sure to bitch about the lsd if they are a prob.

 

Look decent? Im sorry, but looks are nothing. Looks doesnt tell you what the metal is made of, the inner diameter of headers, the craftsmanship, the longevity of the product. You cannot buy a performance part for your car based on looks.

It's been covered thoroughly.... https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=930933&page=1


After a few weeks, these were the general results:




As it turns out, the OBX cams have the same specs as Skunk2's. So making power isnt the problem as these make plenty of power.

The metal is too hard and wears down the rockers too fast.

So there ya go.

well i was dumb enough to buy the catback for my DA. first off, it was about 3 inches too short; none of the hangers were close to the mounts. then, i search, search and find long rubber mounts...then last winter there is a snowstorm, and my goddamn exhaust breaks off at the cat converter and my car was at stock height with stock suspension. now my car is lowered about 2 inches; i finally pay a shop to make an extension and mount the exhaust the way it was supposed to be mounted (the price i payed + getting it mounted right = a good exhaust price) and 2 weeks ago i hit a rock in the road; it knocks my axleback hangers off and its dragging on the ground again the ******* muffler on my exhaust is about 3 feet long and 15 inches tall; its way too big and everything in the road hits it. when my car was stock height, the bottom of the muffler was about 4 inches from the ground; every rock in the road hit it, even with the exhaust mounted as high is it could possibly go. i WILL NEVER, ever buy another obx product again. that one part has caused me so many goddamn headaches, i wouldnt take another exhaust even if it was free

ive heard nothing but good things about skunk2s cams. they have really built up a good reputation. just dont put stage 3s in a daily driven, over 1000 miles a month driven car, like a guy i know
